Présentation de l'éditeur
What creature is in health, either young or old, But some mirth with modesty will be glad to use, As we in this interlude shall now unfold? Wherein all scurrility we utterly refuse; A voiding such mirth wherein is abuse :K nowing nothing more commendable for a mans recreation, Than mirth which is used in an honest fashion. For mirth prolongeth life, and causeth health; Mirth recreates our spirits, and voideth pensiveness; Mirth increaseth amity, not hindering cur wealth; Mirth is to be used both of more and less, Being mixed with virtue in decent comeliness, As we trust no good nature can gainsay the same: Which mirth we intend to use, avoiding all blame. The wise poets long time heretofore, Under merry comedies secrets did declare, Wherein was contained very virtuous lore, With mysteries and forewarnings very rare.

Évaluation du vendeur 5 sur 5 étoiles
Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is the dramatic writings of Nicholas Udall, whose impressive collection of plays includes Ralph Roister Doister. The plot centres upon the comically foolish Roister Doister, who believes the affections of a wealthy widow, Custance, may be won by an extravagant display of love and ardent pursuit. The author is thought to have written this as a reflection of society during the period and a commentary on the ridiculous nature of blind love, along with themes of wealth and social standing, typical of the era. As Ralph's misguided attempts continue, humour abounds, and as the story reaches its climax, readers may recall many similar farcical scenarios that still play out in modern courtship. Like many of the author's works, themes of social satire, class, money, and love in the face of societal norms are explored with a light-hearted, humorous style. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781451011012_0
